Ive looked all over these fourms to answer this question and the averge replie to this is between 68 and 75. I find this hard to belive beacuse I have got mine up to 77 befor i had to slow down beacuse I ran out of straight away..

So True man. I bet that 250r will get to the top speed before the 450r.

Im talking stock here...a 250R is going to look pretty pathetic lined up next to a
450R when a 450R will be ahead the whole race not to mention pull away at about
65 when the 250R tops out

uh, 250Rs go a little faster than 65...most have been clocked at 70+ (historical fact since 1986). if a 400ex can do 65-68, the R is lighter- but with about the same HP actualy making it to the ground...

stock, a 250R will lose in a race to a 450R. Modded, its closer. my 250 is slightly modded and it will hang with and nearly beat a stock raptor (660). dont underestimate a 250R; wonderful handling bike and good power to weight ratio, and simple bolt on mods make a difference.

according to an issue of dirtwheels a awhile back, they said they clocked (its not in the stats of the test) the 450R at 78.49, just a little ahead of the YFZ...of course, that was them and it could be BS b/c i dont think its going that fast pegged out (fast as a quadzilla- no way), stock...dont get me wrong, they rip but ive never seen a 450R beat a YFZ- stock or modded.
